i dont know much about guns.... but if it is possible to use a silencer on a sniper rifle this guy could go undetected for a while. it would take days to pinpoint where a particular shot came from and unless someone eyeballs him or notices a neighbour etc he might be very hard to stop.

They say its a remington high powered rifle, but that bullet fits in alot of guns so its hard to know exactly what type. Also my friend knows the lady that got shot by me the cop said she was bending down to get her bags and the sniper was aiming for her head but as she stood up he shot and hit her in the lower back right where her head was

U cant know what type of gun it was using that info, well maybe the sound. But its the bullet that does the job, the gun just helps in accuracy.

No, they havent caught him yet. I think now he'll slow down, the first day was easy, no one knew what was happening. Now I think this person thinks it even more fun. He will probably go a couple of weeks and hit again. Hope that the police get a good tip before more people die.
